While rolling some pennies I discovered a 1904 Indian Head encrusted with some sort of gem looking object. I have no idea what it is but maybe some of you guys can help me out.
I have seen that someone here had already found this coin. It looked less shiny, but older then the one I found though. Just signed up to the site as I find the coin rather interesting :) anyone know anything about it?
I received a request today for good places to sell your old coins. He has coins from 1820's on, mainly dimes. Tell you the truth I have never sold nor purchased any of my coins. But, I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions?
These were saved in a little box by my father for a very long time. I don't know where or how he got them. I've had them for about 8 yrs now and am interested in selling them. I don't know the first thing about them except they are very, very shiny and look very detailed. I'm sure they are...
Last Thursday's Roman Hunt
I took the day off last Thursday as the weather was fantastic, and went up to my usual hunting grounds about an hour from home. But this time, I moved over into a newly plowed field and searched it for about two hours. I found two Roman coins and an intact set of...
Hey y'all,
Maybe I should have posted in 'What is it?' rather than coins, because I have no idea if this is even a coin, though I figured if it is a coin you'd be the guys to ask. But anyway, found this in Southern Ontario, 10 inches down around a baseball diamond that used to be farmed at...
We own a 200+ year old farm house that was once part of the underground railroad in PA. We always find bottles, marbles, old stuff, pottery pieces, and metal whenever we dig. We recently had a pool put in and found TONS of stuff, however, we found a coin/metal/medallion of some type which we...
Another garbage dump has released its treasure to me, (bare in mind it took me several smelly hours of rummaging to amass all of this treasure into one place). Everything you see below was the result of painstaking sorting of garbage from over 15 bags of junk and filth. Was it worth it? Heck...
Hi, i'm new to this forum and i just wanted to share some information about an unlikely myth. So everybody has heard about Jessie James "The Outlaw not the singer :)". He was born in MO and was a Bushwhacker during the Civil War, Jessie and his gang robbed trains and bank. what did he do with...
I set aside all 1990 nickels as I go through a box and then examine each one with a loupe for the 1990 no/missing "FS" error which I've read about on numerous sites. I've gone through around 180 1990 nickels and while all of them show rather clearly the typical FS engraver's initials below...
Today was our maiden outing with my new Garrett 250 and the first thing it found was what what we thought was a dirty half penny piece but when I got back and cleaned it up it turned out to be a 1604 James I unite coin. I have know idea if it's worth anything but am just excited to have found a...

This is a coin I detected on a river bank , not sure what it is the other side of the coin has the same wreath wrapping around the coin, but that is all you can make out. The visible side which you see in the pic is all I've got on this one. Does anyone think this may be colonial ??? Appears to...

Hey Guys,
This is my first post here on Treasure Net. After the passing of my grandfather I received his rather large coin collection. Out of interest I am checking to see the authenticity of some of his coins, and the Continental "Curency" coin caught my attention. I know little to nothing...

Where do I begin? I found this weird CPG CO "token/coin?" in Essex County, Massachusetts yesterday. Actually it appears to be two tokens/coins stuck together. The thought of separating them is absolutely terrifying to me so I haven't tried anything yet. Could it be that the fronts of both coins...
